Toronto Real Estate - Home Buyer BOOTCamp

“Wow, I Wish I’d Known That Before”
22 Things You Need To Know About Toronto Home Buying
That You Can’t Find The Answers To On The Internet

You’ve got a goal - to buy a home this year. If you’re like most people, you’ve probably gathered almost all the research you need to buy but you’re not clear on how to put it all into action. There’s still some links missing.

One mistake home buyers make is thinking they can learn everything they need to know just by ‘surfing’ the internet. The problem with that is it takes a lot of your time... hours spent flipping from one real estate site to the next.

Today The Information You Really Need Isn’t Even On The Internet

Today almost 95% of Toronto buyers do their house and condo purchasing research on the internet... both to look at homes for sale AND to learn about the home buying process.

But we're still getting lots of questions from our clients about things they couldn’t easily find the answers to. Although the internet is a fantastic resource, there were still lots of questions in the minds of buyers that needed answering.

The truth is many of the ‘real life’ critical home buying things you need to know aren’t even mentioned there.

After ten years of hosting our regular buyer workshops and seeing the growing influence of the internet on home buyers, Sally and I realized that first-time home buyers now needed to learn new things.

So we did our research. I interviewed several of our clients and our buyer agent Team to find out what questions our clients were asking throughout the process and saying “Wow, I didn’t know that” or “I wish I’d known that before” when they got the answer.

To make this happen, we’ve revised our long-running and highly successful home buyer workshop for this new decade.

Often home buyer BOOTCamp ‘graduates’ have come to us after a successful purchase in Toronto and exclaimed how smoothly the process went for them.

Catalina told us that “The BOOTCamp showed me the details of the process of buying a house -- things I thought I knew but didn't”.

Jaime said “I attended your Saturday morning BOOTCamp and I wanted to thank you for all the information you provided. I have been to a number of workshops where they have solely been sales pitches to lure you to their office, and I have learned nothing.

Your BOOTCamp has opened my eyes and made me realize that there are people out there to support me and that buying a home doesn't have to be a terrifying experience.”

The survey told us these are the things buyers NEEDED to know (but didn’t) before they felt comfortable starting their home search...
